Implementing and uplifting controls to effectively address the risks Wise is exposed to in APAC:
- By understanding both the Wise product deeply enough and local regulatory expectations, support Product and other first-line teams to identify controls they have
in place, the risk(s) the controls are mitigating, and how to document the controls within
the Wise Group Governance, Risk Management and Compliance (GRC) tool - Working with Product and other first-line teams to identify and/or remediate any gaps
in control design, with a focus on gaps in meeting various regulatory obligations across
the APAC region. This includes ensuring that any new controls are implemented
consistently prior to launch - Working with control owners to uplift existing controls, to ensure documentation
accurately reflects control design, and controls effectively address the risk(s) they
intend to mitigate and - Supporting Product and other first-line teams to interpret regulatory requirements
across APAC, and improve their controls accordingly to avoid regulatory breaches
and/or incidents.
Defining and mapping scalable control frameworks across APAC:
- Identifying where APAC regulatory requirements can be met by leveraging existing
global controls and when unique requirements need prioritisation, optimising for
utilisation of existing controls where possible. - Designing and implementing first-line control monitoring and testing:
- Supporting control framework owners to build risk-based controls testing programs,
as required to meet APAC regulatory requirements - Supporting Product and other first-line teams with inputs into internal and external
control assessments and - Working with second line Compliance and Risk teams to design and execute control attestation processes across APAC
